My working methods are guided by both curiosity and an ambitious attitude towards the act of making. Through my work, I consider the relationship of the artisan and designer, and their role of making things by hand in the future, in an ever-changing world of new technologies. The combination of 3D printing and CNC technology with the traditional techniques of goldsmithery and artisanry is a source of ongoing inspiration and creates interesting possibilities in design and technical production. I feel it is important that the artisan is always informed by material and form.
My work stands out in the way it tells a story. Jewellery tells a story on many different levels. The planning phase of my work is based on thorough background research, and every decision in terms of form is considered and well founded. The beautiful surroundings of Fiskars Village work as a creative inspiration for me, and have done already for 14 years.
